Chapter 2026



"You animal... G-Give me... Give me the medicine..."

A loud crash echoed through the room.

Lance could no longer hold himself up. Clutching his chest in agony, he collapsed straight to the floor, knocking over the coffee table.

"Dad, I'll give you one last chance."

Christopher leaned in slightly, looking down at him like a man would regard a dying, pathetic old dog. "If you kneel down and beg me right now, I'll give you the medicine. You always taught us to recognize when to yield. Isn't that what you said when we were kids?"

"Bastard... Dream on!"

Lance's face twisted in fury, his eyes filled with hatred as he tried to crawl toward Christopher's feet. However, no matter how hard he struggled, he could not get up.

Christopher took a step back, as if Lance were filthy and repulsive.

Lance's pallor turned from ghastly white to ashen gray.

The sight of his father's suffering stirred a dark pleasure in Christopher's heart. He could not help but laugh, his laughter growing so intense that tears began to well up at the corners of his reddened eyes.

"I've already sent your favorite son on his way. I don't mind sending you to join him. Go on, reunite with your precious son, Charles, in the afterlife." "Charles... My... My Charles..."
